ITI TranscenData Joins JT Open Program of Siemens PLM
 MILFORD,
OH, Jan 11, 2010 - ITI TranscenData announced today that it has joined the
JT Open Program in order to offer the popular industry standard JT data
format to their CAD data interoperability customers.
The JT Open Program is a unique industry initiative sponsored by Siemens
PLM Software, a business unit of the Siemens Industry Automation Division
and leading global provider of product lifecycle management (PLM) software
and services. It consists of a community of software users and independent
software vendors committed to the widespread adoption of a single, open and
preferred 3D visualization platform based on JT technology. JT Open provides
a forum where all members have equal access to JT technology, which has
proven value in visualization, collaboration and data sharing across today’s
most popular PLM solutions.
JT is a mature lightweight data format that already enjoys widespread use
in the automobile and aerospace industries and is equally suitable for all
manufacturing industry applications. The success of JT and applications that
exploit it is such that JT has become the preferred common data format for
many large and mid-sized companies.
CADfix will be ITI TranscenData’s first application to benefit from
the new membership. CADfix removes barriers that prevent the reuse of solid
models by providing an extensive set of geometry manipulation tools for
importing CAD/CAM/CAE data, repairing it, and exporting the data in the most
suitable form for reuse in the downstream system.
The addition of the JT interface in combination with CADfix’s existing
support of other native CAD formats such as CATIA, Inventor, NX software,
Pro/ENGINEER and SolidWorks will offer manufacturers and their suppliers an
optimal CAD interoperability solution for data exchange, collaboration, and
visualization.
“ITI TranscenData is committed to providing the most robust solutions in
the CAD interoperability industry. The new capabilities offered through the
JT Open Program further our mission,” says ITI TranscenData President, Don
Hemmelgarn, “Beyond the CADfix interface, we plan to expand support of JT in
our other interoperability solutions, such as: CADIQ, DEXcenter and the
Proficiency Collaboration Gateway.”
“The JT Open Program proudly welcomes ITI TranscenData as our latest
member” says Rich Ramsey, Vice President of Partner and Components
Marketing, Siemens PLM Software. “This new addition is another example of
the growing worldwide interest in supporting the JT data format, along with
the recent acceptance of the JT documentation as the world’s first ISO
specification for 3D visualization in the PLM domain, continue to establish
JT as the common 3D language for the global PLM industry.”
